The present invention is a 3D word-search puzzle comprising: a three-dimensional object with printed symbols on the surfaces containing a set of phrases. Each phrase on the surface of the puzzle may cross one or more edges within the object's surface. The method of producing the puzzle comprises: mapping the surfaces of a 3D object to one or more 2D surfaces; phrases are laid out on each surface by placing series of symbols across one or more surfaces; and constructing the puzzle by applying the surface layouts directly onto a 3D object by direct printing on the 3D object, or printing onto a 2D layout which is folded and assembled into the 3D shape. The method of playing the word-search puzzle includes: a list of phrases to be found; rules identifying permissible sequences of symbols; and finding the phrases on the three-dimensional object.
